1948 Ford Overview

The 1948 Fords were almost identical to the year-earlier model and the production run ended in mid-spring so re-tooling could take place for the all-new 1949 Fords. The 49 Ford was introduced in June, 1948.

The Deluxe series included rubber moldings around the window openings, a horn button instead of a ring, and sun visor and armrest only on the driver's side.

The Super Deluxe series included chrome moldings for the window openings, a horn ring, two sun visors, armrests on all doors, passenger assist straps on the interior "B" pillars, and a horizontal chrome strip on the body. The convertible models also included leather interiors.
